Shotokan groups
Hello,
because of the number of world wide members, and the quantity of its publications, the Nihon Karate Kyokai (JKA) is probably the best known Shotokan organization. However, by no means the JKA is representative of the whole Shotokan school.
Below I would like to present a small list of various groups and currents, which are practising interpretations of Gichin Funakoshi's karate. (additions are welcome)
______________________________________________
(1) Nihon Karatedo Shotokai (S. Egami; this is the follow-up organization of G. Funakoshi's own group)
(2) Shoto Domonkai (T. Watanabe)
(3) Nihon Shoto Rengokai (N. Mizuda)
(4) Shotokan Karate of America (T. Oshima)
(5) Nihon Karate Shoto Renmei (T. Asai)
(6) Kokusai Shotokan Karate Renmei (H. Kanazawa)
(7) Nihon Karatedo Yutenkai
(8) Shoto-Ryu (T. Shimizu)
(9) Gima-Ha Shotokan-Ryu (S. Gima)
(10) Okano-Ha Shotokan-Ryu (T. Okano)
(11) Kase-Ha Shotokan Ryu (T. Kase)
(12) Chidokan (T. Sasaki)
